Diana is being Daddy's Little Helper in the yard here. : )
The pic above, is Diana of course. But the photo below, is actually my baby...Sara, in front of Grandma and Grandpa's house on one of our vacations. The porches look so similar, but these are not the same home.
Okay, so she's not a baby anymore. Do I HAVE to admit it? Sara is my number four and the "baby" of our little family. : )
Silly girl. When my mom opened her mail (on this Wednesday, last week) there were more beautiful pix from one of her Granddaughters. I taped it to another water bottle, at least temporarily, so she could enjoy them all. Guess what? I talked my mom into letting me color her hair. She was such a good sport. Afterwards, I said, "Mom, why don't you put on your new blouse, some lipstick and earrings and I'll take some pix of you to show [my siblings]. "

Yes, she is beautiful! I really enjoy seeing your old pictures! They are such a treasure!
Gorgeous photos, and how did they manage to look like movie stars after childbirth? My mother in law, oh my holding my newborn sister in law, wearing a red hot dress, blonde hair, red lipstick looking like she walked right out of a magazine!!! Me? Frumpy, tired and worn out pics after childbirth. lol!!
Your Mom looks absolutely sweet and gorgeous in the last photo!!

Beauty runs in your family! LOVE the old photos (natch!), but even little Sara with her pony tailettes! TOOOOO adorable! Your mom is lovely. It's so nice to read a blog where someone reveres and honors their parents and is willing to share it! Thank you. :)

Your mother looks beautiful...what a blessing to still have your Mom with you, cherish every moment!
You have such great photos of your parents. They did a great job of documenting everything. She looks like a movie star after giving birth...WOW. Your Mom is still beautiful!!!
Your Mom was beautiful as a young woman and she remains so. I wish we still had the photos taken when our parents were young. Your Mom's hair looks great-you are a super stylist/colorist as well as a loving daughter!

HI!!!
I love seeing old family photos, they are just so happy looking!!! Your Mother looked amazing and she is a beautiful lady today as well!! Way to go to keep her spirits high, a few weeks before my Grandmother passed away, I went to see her in Indiana and I asked her if I could do anything for her to make her feel better or more comfortable, and she said comb my hair, it's bringing tears to my eyes as I type this, not only did I comb it, I go out my curling iron and make-up and fixed her up!! She loved it so much, she wanted to go sit on the porch, and that was the last time she did that, as she passed about 2 weeks after that. She had cancer everywhere and never complained about the pain of it til the end.
I loved her so much and always looked forward to going to Indian and sitting on her porch swing with her.
So thanks for letting me read your story!!!
have a blessed day,
jmaie
Your mom is so beautiful! I love all of those old pictures. The clothes, the hair, everything! My dad had a push mower like that.
XOXO

Your dear Mother is beautiful then and now. I love all your pics from the past. Your daughter is gorgeous too.
I so enjoyed your post. What a treasure and what a great idea to tape pics to your mom's water bottles.
Thank you for stopping by and your sweet comment.
Have a great afternoon.

She's so beautiful! I love all the old pictures. If only I could have looked as beautiful after having any one of my kids....Still waiting...
...and there we are! lol :) Thx for the sweet words :) Her hair looks GREAT and you are awesome for helping her feel like the beautiful woman she is. Love you both!
Yeah, it's Wednesday with Mom! This has become my favorite day of the week! Another lovely visit! Elizabeth
Wow she did look gorgeous and after a baby too.
And she's looking lovely with her "new" hair!
I just colored my mom's hair too. She had some silly excuse like shoulder surgery preventing her from doing it herself. ;)
Your Mother is beautiful!
Love the legal firecrackers. ;)
What a beautiful post! I am so in love with your old pictures. Your mom looks like such a sweet woman. Great job.
